Lumbar puncture (LP) is a procedural skill that is required for practice in the emergency care setting, most often for diagnostic purposes. Rarely, it can also be used therapeutically, to alleviate the pain of patients presenting to the emergency department with acute headache from idiopathic intracranial hypertension. In either case, LP constitutes an

Undertaking lumbar puncture in the intensive care patient can be technically challenging due to patient positioning and body habitus. Ultrasound guidance can improve the success rate and is relatively easy to learn. This chapter describes the normal sonoanatomy of the lumbar spine and how to use ultrasound to guide lumbar puncture.
